with the advent of the so-called caged which could be implanted inside the heart itself unlike with previous models later in the decade disc made their debut. blood cells by the late one nine hundred seventy s. more or less modern. but these still work perfect. whatever the position of. the ring they create some amount of resistance so the pressure on the heart is generally as high as thirty forty or even fifty millimeters of mercury we figured out that it wouldn't be. minds here are made of what's called monolithic pure living carbon the materials
1:31 pm
obtained from ordinary natural gas as it's burned at temperatures up to fifteen hundred degrees celsius and special ovens carbon collects on the walls of the reactor that's been collected and passed on for further reworking. the main difference is that elsewhere in the beauty carbon is based on a graphic foundation. that is a result. structure. so that when the show is undamaged. but the whole thing falls apart whenever there's a tiny crack. a material is better protected against such problems. getting that purely to carbon they need is only the first step in the process before these black into rings can become potentially life saving valves they must be cut and chiseled into the right shape. thank you in the fact these are really
1:32 pm
going to be implanted inside someone's heart the repeatedly long the wait for pinpoint accuracy. however unlike many other valves out there many inches are made entirely out of pure carbon that means that not only is the suturing but the leaflets are also made from super strong material to get the flap shaped just right down using special equipment and that goes on to be checked and cleaned once again from this point the two main components the ring and the leaflets are put together in an absolutely sterile room over the years the company has sold tens of thousands of their previous models in more than twenty five countries but thanks to their work with the center this new valve is a step above the rest by creating a totally unobstructed channel through the middle to improve the performance of biological valves with the long life and reliability of mechanical ones. the

whole shape is the same as that human body which enables even. without any of. the functions. we've just started clinical trials which we intend to run for a year and then start mass production sales. so far only a handful of the brand new place in the hands of capable surgeons when they do eventually hit the market will likely be plenty of demand in two thousand and eleven there were some twenty five thousand placement surgeries in russia alone and to avoid becoming another of those statistics you should do as i say not as i do for like this may be tasty but in excess it could lead to any number of health problems all the starch and sugar can wreak havoc on your teeth and might just land you under dental surgeons operating lights but. even that doesn't have to be as nail biting as it used to be for many people there's nothing more stressful than a visit to the doctor but many are turning to new technology to soothe their

patients. more invasive surgeries. to make the necessary because these are often perfect for surgery in the mouth because as it slices. instantaneously. have been around for a while but this one being used just outside of moscow is of a new breed. which at the market early in two thousand and twelve. thermal optic surgery based on the nano carbonized zation of light guides feedback and a high power laser allows us to significantly reduce the time it takes to perform a surgery. but this means tissues consume less energy which in turn reduces the risk of causing thermal damage to the tissues. this is especially important in operations. these tissues are very few.

which. is a global partnership that's based on technology pioneered here in st petersburg the streets of the northern capital in winter months the laser related tech of some of the city's scientists. the principle that underlies many laser scalpels. eighty's and has its roots at the st petersburg state university of information technology mechanics and optics despite what many people think don't make incisions with the laser. cutting previously imprecise science the laser create a fixed output the temperature could and did throughout the course of an operation based on the know how here the st petersburg institute. which they feel is head and shoulders above the competition. lies
1:36 pm
in its feedback system that control the temperature of the areas being operated on . depending on the required temperature. here in st petersburg different configurations to see which. performance for certain. materials can be used in the tips but depending on how much. the varying temperatures. cutting edge research takes place in st petersburg. the company's production is located all the way across the globe. just outside of boston massachusetts in the united states there's a truly international research and development carried out by the russian partners . of the individual companies. photonics is primarily responsible for innovation research development and commercialisation of the product in the russian federation. dental photonics is responsible for
1:37 pm
manufacturing and commercialization in international markets and we think that this is a very. to maximize success of the project because it allows us to. maximize the strengths of each party's in their respective graphic locales and also leverage their capital resources most efficiently here in the u.s. the lasers are marketed as. the mother you see here is designed for soft tissue surgery but the company is currently working on a new fiber designed especially for cutting through hard. the unique designs dental school simply swap out the soft tissue scalpel for a different one in theory that means dental surgeons board have to invest in an entirely separate consul for different purposes. devices produced by a closest competitors in terms of power are much larger and much more complicated than the ones that we made some competitors make similarly sized devices but
1:38 pm
they're much less powerful than ours so our devices are quite well placed in the market they're compact easy to assemble highly efficient and can accurately control the optical power output. as you can see here the laser easily able to pierce a piece of wood with only three pull through about fifty millimeters the resulting hole is smaller and more accurate than is possible with other surgical drills in theory such. could be used for pain this cavity drilling. it was exhibit. which was held this year all of the devices they were produced intended for sale in the russian market were completely sold out over the course of the two days of the show. here in russia the company and its technology is getting recognition all around. and not just from buyers despite having only

major university is a variable treasure trove of knowledge in the form of both respected professors and millions upon millions of books however there is just not enough time in the day all our lives to get through them all but thanks to the labor of one tireless academic here that could all be changing comes to science and technology it's hard to find as prolific of an institution as moscow state university stalking the hollowed halls here have been some of the globe's greatest thinkers and it was here back in the late one nine hundred sixty s. . teamed up with if you move lieberman to prove the existence of the electric

potential difference across mitochondrial membranes that was a confirmation needed to help earn a british scientist the nobel prize perhaps more importantly that discovery could unlock the phone with youth for us all. to understand we have to look inside each individual cell among the various organelles the most important for our purposes is the mitochondria and as these power plants pump out energy for the cell reactive oxygen species are also generated the build up of these so called in mitochondria can damage already named d.n.a. and protein which is thought to be largely responsible for the physiological effects of aging. and his team hypothesized that this could be cut down by accident with the possibly charge doing so allows mitochondria negatively charged interior to attract the. compound that combination also helps. membrane which would otherwise absorb the fat soluble. get to where they're needed

in the wake of dr postulation and research such positive ion delivery vehicles were nicknamed school. since that time the topic has become a bit of a family affair with a good doctor's sons getting involved now although the underlying idea originated back in the seventy's it wasn't put into practice until the one nine hundred ninety s. . we were in the first to apply this principle. fact it was michael moore if. he used cohen's i'm q occident i immediately told him that it wasn't a very good choice in terms of the anti-oxidant but by then he already made a lot of progress with that substance so he just threw his hands up and told me that his investors wouldn't forgive him if he changed the substance halfway through and said they were going to give it a shot. it takes ten to fifteen years to introduce
1:45 pm
a new medicine unfortunately a lot of that time was lost in my opinion however no one can deny him the honor of being the first to try out our idea. since at first for an attempt to mitochondria with antioxidants dr school cho and other moscow state university researchers have been hard at work coming up with an antioxidant and delivery system pair that shows better results. unlike murphy he tried vitamin e. and q. school when his have hitched their wagon to a substance well accustomed to dealing with the build up of lots of oxygen plant chloroplasts. the thought being that since our green growing friends produce large amounts of oxygen their own antioxidants must be up to the task of keeping the dangerous reactive oxygen species to a minimum. the resulting compound. is reported to be hundreds of times more effective than any of the other variations

previously. this is based on the proposition that it's programmed in our genetic makeup to slowly but surely. and you might. succeed in extending human life more importantly. it least that's what it doesn't anymore. so there is a good chance. a certain fact yet so as a scientist to have my doubts what are we working on is rather. but we have to try .

which is a science. with russian regulatory approval in hand though. but surely started getting their eyedrops to market their tinting to go without linking up with a major pharma distributor. they've already sold twenty five thousand bottles to various pharmacies. innovators this is just the first step in fact we have plans to grow into a large pharmaceutical company with products to treat. over medications will have one thing in common. this i believe is a noble goal. in that direction.

a little more practice behind a fictional wheel before getting out there. also develop. transport drivers. to practice in close to real life conditions. everything one would find. however for the forward thinking. patient is only half the. patient from the starting point. so the simulator. transporting the patient. to other doctors from that point on. surgery. the next logical step. to make training man. here towards the other aspects of. the company is working on creating

a whole training complexes that will cover the more than one hundred different medical branches needed for russia's health care system. and having a look and feel just right is of most importance the more realistic the training the more useful it is when the time comes to put that knowledge to use. the company's production facilities designers are constantly working to improve them in addition to realistic structures they've also been working on a skin like covering that will mimic the feel of cutting through real life. rather early days for i. dance as well as becoming more lifelike. as production ranges from simple c.p.r. training to complex robots. skilled computer programming brains of the operation. talented team of creative programmers simulated.

1:56 pm
developers the better it is for the medical equipment market so we feel that our devices are better than foreign ones in a number of ways by new companies first and they have been tailored specifically for the russian health care system of that secondly we have introduced a new concept. with a number of ports which is unique to our company. with a full scale model of an operating room together with a robot this is something our foreign competitors have yet to emulate. but i don't isn't stopping there they recently got big backing for a project to build one of the largest innovative medical complexes in russia for now the plans are only on paper but they soon hope to break ground on a center that would bring many of the globe's leading institutions to. the ideas and medical advances you've seen today we hope that your next visit to the doctor and this holiday season will be very very indeed that this edition of technology update will see you next time enjoy the right.
